    Fratelli Brovia, Barolo, Rocche di Castiglione, 2012

    Tight knit and fine, less immediate or bold than Villero but this is all about charm. Wonderful for its clarity, focus and freshness. Stylish, fine red berry and cherry fruit with touches of kirsch. Long and effortless A south east facing Castiglione vineyard with a touch of sand in the clay soils giving fresh, fragrant, elegant wines.

    The 2020 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is a sexy, racy wine. Pliant and deep, the 2020 is a great example of this site. Soft contours wrap around a core of dark red fruit, kirsch, spice, menthol, new leather and licorice. Time in the glass brings out the wine's stunning inner perfume, that most Rocche of signatures. Deep and layered, with exceptional balance, the 2020 is a striking, captivating wine that captures the best the vintage had to offer.
